Admin Post: March Challenge

[hhimring]

Thank you very much for your engagement with this community!

Here is the tolkienshortfanworks challenge for March.

The thematic challenge for this month is: return.
Bonus prompts:
Include one of the following three canonical phrases from the Legendarium:
a) Well, I'm back.
b) the return of the king
c) the return of the Noldor
(Use those phrases any way you like.)

The formal challenge this time is simply: any multiple of 100 words (100 words, 200 words, etc.).

Usual reminder that in order to post the fill to this community or to the related collection on AO3 (linked in a sticky post at the top), the fanwork can only have a word count up to 1000 words and must be linked to a Tolkien fandom.
Rec lists and podfics can be posted as fills for thematic prompts, as long as the fanworks concerned meet those conditions.

Also we continue to welcome other pieces unrelated to any challenge, of course, including cross-posts and older stories, as long as they meet the criteria!
